Aimé Nicolas Morot - Portrait of Gustave Eiffel [1905]


Aimé Nicolas Morot (Nancy, 1850 - Dinard, 1913) was a French painter. After producing some extremely remarkable figure paintings in the beginning of his career, he went on to become a society portraitist. Although he travelled widely with his family, he produced no works in the Orientalist genre.
